fulltext index: case sensitive vs. case insensitive
Hi, If I create the fulltext index with "stemming" switched on and "case sensitive" switched off, there is no way to enable case sensitive search, is this correct? So if users would like to search case sensitive as well as case insensitive, I would have to create two indices? Which would mean creating actually four indices to allow for fuzzy search or exact matches as well: w/ stemming and w/ case sensitive w/ stemming and w/o case sensitive w/o stemming and w/ case sensitive w/o stemming and w/o case sensitve. That's quite a lot of data! Would it be possible to handle case sensitivity rather as an option for the query than as an option for the index, like described here: <http://www.xmlmind.com/tutorials/XQueryFullText/index.html#d0e333> Best regards Cerstin -- Dr. phil.

Dear Cerstin,
Which would mean creating actually four indices to allow for fuzzy search or exact matches as well:
w/ stemming and w/ case sensitive w/ stemming and w/o case sensitive w/o stemming and w/ case sensitive w/o stemming and w/o case sensitve.
That's quite a lot of data!
..definitely something that should be covered by our new full-text index [1] Thanks for your feedback; the more feature requests we get for the full-text index, the better we will know what this index must be tailored for. Christian [1] https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/issues/346
